Water Power is a pornographic film directed by Shaun Costello.[1] Released circa 1976, it was loosely based on the real-life exploits of the Illinois "Enema bandit", Michael H. Kenyon, who administered forced enemas to female college students in the 1960s and 1970s. The film stars Jamie Gillis as a disturbed loner. In preparing for his role, Gillis reportedly asked to be flown to Illinois to interview the man his character was based upon. His request was denied.[citation needed]
